Mar 03, 2004 -- Beware of the 1-900 junk fax scam!

Junk faxes are showing up in people’s fax machines more often these days. About 90 percent of the faxes Clark gets are junk faxes. They eat up his paper and cost him money. But a new junk fax from Canada could really hurt you in the wallet. These are ads tempting you to shop, drive a car or eat in a restaurant for COLD HARD CASH. All you have to do is call a 1-900 number to find out more. What you don’t know is that the phone call will cost you just about $30. It will cost you $100 if you call about all of the offers. To make matters worse, if you don’t want the faxes anymore, and you check the “opt out” box on the fax, you’ll be charged $8 for that fax. It’s unbelievable! If you don’t have 900 number block on your home or work phone, get it. You never know when someone will try to send you one of these or try to make a phone call from your home. It’s just smart!
